Was it Cuddly and Boo-Boo?
I just did a little research and I see that the two atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nicknamed "Little Boy" and "Fat Man". What the hell were they thinking? I was pretty close with my guess of Cuddly and Boo-Boo. Shouldn't an atomic bomb have an appropriate nick name like "Death Bringer" or "Grim Reaper"?
Look how they name cars - Mustang, Stingray, Colt. There are no cars called the Honda Slug or the Chrysler Wombat.
Imagine if they released a new sports car...the Ford Fat Man twin turbo, I'm rushing out to buy one...not.
